We live in a universe of data. Organizations have shifted their attention towards becoming more capable and efficient when handling data to create new business opportunities and obtain better results. Nowadays, decisions need to be data-driven, bringing us facts and not limit our decision with intuition, instinct, or common sense. Data also guides us with a more sophisticated understanding of market performance and how they generate more value for clients. Organizations that choose to become data-driven can start their journey today.

Das Hauptaugenmerk dieser Untersuchung liegt auf der Bewertung zweier Diskussionen in Bezug auf den vegetarischen Diskurs in der Antike. Als Hauptquelle steht Porphyrios’ De Abstinentia im Vordergrund. Diese Schrift enthält nicht nur ein Plädoyer für die vegetarische Lebensweise, sondern auch eine wertvolle Sammlung von Meinungen verschiedener Philosophen, die sich gegen oder für den Vegetarismus geäußert haben. Zuerst wird das Fragment Gegen die Vegetarier des Klodios aus Neapel bzw. Herakleides Pontikos mit einer textkritischen Edition und Übersetzung präsentiert und diskutiert. Dann werden die intertextuellen Bezüge zwischen diesem und dem Fragment des Theophrast Über die Frömmigkeit analysiert. Zuletzt wird gezeigt, wie Porphyrios die Begriffe Oikeiosis und Philanthropia kritisch rezipiert, und darauf aufbauend eine räumliche Terminologie für seine eigene Ethik entwickelt hat. Anhand der Analyse dieser beiden Diskussionen will dieses Buch zeigen, dass die Diskussion um den Vegetarismus in der Antike vielfältiger und dynamischer war, als bis jetzt angenommen wurde. Interessierte an Tierethik und Menschen-Tier-Verhältnissen, aber auch an neuplatonischer und stoischer Philosophie werden in diesem Buch anregende Anhaltspunkte finden.
